Frequently Asked Questions
What does an HTML stripper do?
An HTML stripper removes all HTML tags from a string, leaving only the visible text content. '<p>Hello <strong>world</strong></p>' becomes 'Hello world'. Useful for extracting readable text from HTML for search indexing, plain-text email versions, or accessibility processing.
Does it handle malformed HTML?
Yes — the stripper uses a permissive parser that handles common HTML errors like unclosed tags and mismatched elements. It strips what looks like tags even in malformed input.
Will it preserve my line breaks and spacing?
Enable the 'Preserve whitespace' option to convert <br> tags to newlines and block elements (p, div, h1-h6, li) to newline-separated text. Without this option, all tags are removed and the resulting text may run together.
Is my data stored?
No.
Can I use this on mobile?
Yes.
